Reba & Kelly sell out Valentine's Day show

TUPELO - It was a sold-out show for country music veteran Reba McEntire and first "American Idol" champ Kelly Clarkson at the BancorpSouth Arena Thursday night.

A total 8,500 showed up for the night's concert, said Kevan Kirkpatrick, the arena's marketing director. He said fans got lucky with more tickets being released on Thursday.

Clarkson and McEntire are on their "2 Worlds 2 Voices" tour. The two first collaborated on CMT's "Crossroads" program, which usually pairs a country singer with a rock 'n' roll singer.

A night for girls
McEntire and Clarkson's show started with McEntire singing a strain of Patsy Cline's "Sweet Dreams (Of You)," which led into the two singing a cover of the Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)."
